My husband and I live in NY, and as of writing this I'm not sure how much we owe on credit cards, but I will get to that later. I'm hoping that as I'm writing this blog, putting it all down in writing will help.

Ugh, I hate this time of the week...

November 16th, 2008 at 05:46 pm

Sundays, when I sit down and pay the bills for the week. I used to do it Friday when I got home from work, but it got too depressing over the weekend knowing there was like 1$ left in my bank account. So I started saving it until Sundays so I can cling to the hope maybe there's an extra $20 in there for something.

I actually have today off, a RARE thing. Between the two jobs I can't remember the last day that I had off! I hardly know what to do with myself, so I've been cleaning, cleaning, cleaning. The mama dog I'm fostering and her puppies are all ready for adoption, so things are going to be very quiet (and clean!!) around here without them. Of course for every foster dog that leaves, there's another to take their place, and then some : (

I can't wait for December... I really hope I get a decent bonus check. Last year I think it was around $700 and I could REALLY use an extra $700 right about now! I'm hoping that between next month and this month I can get current on the bills and then STAY that way. I've been paying the cc's and loans on time, but utilities and other things I haven't and I'm pretty sure we're very behind. So my first priority is getting current on all those.... I haven't turned the heat on yet, and I don't plan to until it's current. No way. We have sweaters and blankets (thank god we don't have kids, no way I could get away with this if we did) so we should probably be fine.

Wow! I know how you feel about the weird situation of having a day off with the two jobs! And that is exactly what I did when I had a day off a couple of weeks ago! Clean, clean, clean! Today is not a long day at work, so I have been playing "lets catch up with the laundry!"

As for the depression over having $1 left at the end of the payday, I feel for you (and I am with you too)! Good luck!!
